Spring 2013 Red Cedar River Surf Session

Matuli Team Rider Remi at Michigan State UniversityThien on the Matuli “Made in 1 Day Board”

With flood warnings issued it was time to get the local crew out to surf some not so fresh water waves. This is not a wave for beginners. A shallow line of boulders creates a wave as swift water flows over them. This “East Swell” only works when the river is at just the right depth and flow rate. With all the submerged rocks this is not the place to use your best stick. I met some very rad MSU students who were already on it when we got there. It takes a while to figure the spot out but they were determined and got the hang of it!
